Casual Chic

Since I work for myself and don’t go to an office everyday, I don’t need to dress up unless I have a meeting. My daily go to “uniform” always revolves around dark jeans paired with a blouse or blazer. This has been working especially well since the weather is not yet warm enough for dresses. As you can see from these lovely ladies, it’s a popular look. Of course, pairing it with a Birkin doesn’t hurt.

Getting dress always becomes much easier when you start with the classics as a base. Then one can mix things up with accessories, combining colors and pattern mixing. Yes, a Birkin bag would be lovely. It is certainly on my list.

Happy belated birthday, Heather. This is my daily dress too. I work for an old technology company that recently decided that to invigorate and spur innovation, the dress code was changed to jeans. 🙂

So this is the formula I have refined for myself as a middled-aged professional. Interestingly, when I was wearing dress pants, I might have only worn a blouse with them. But with jeans, I feel like I need to add a blazer or cardigan to dress them up.
